If you're invited for an iftar potluck and have no idea what to bring/too exhausted to cook...this plate is the perfect option. Add dried fruits and nuts to make it your own. You can also make this extra fancy with chocolate-covered dates.

In Ramadan, we all know that the cravings are REAL. You could be craving Mexican, Middle Eastern, and Chinese food within the the span of one hour. So here's a recipe that can definitely satisfy a few cravings. The slow-cooked meat, tahini sauce, and sumac onions of a shawarma has a love affair with the toasty tortilla, rich crema, and fresh salsa of a taco. *Drooling*

The fasting days are LONG and the nights are short. Waking up in the middle of the night to eat suhoor can be quite the struggle. Prep these little energy bites in advance to avoid food prep while you're half-asleep.

The floral essence in this milkshake highlights the flavor of the berries. Blitz the milk, frozen or fresh berries and the flower water until smooth, then top it off with a few bright crushed pistachios, to amp up the Eastern vibe. This is a nice drink for suhoor or a refreshing treat right after iftar.

The pudding itself is super creamy and the perfect thickness. The rice is tender but still holds its shape. Make sure to add a splash of Orange Blossom Water in the end. It gives it the perfect floral hint and makes it absolutely to die for.

Everything gets cooked into one pot - the rice, the meat and the vegetables. And once it's ready to be served, it's flipped upside-down! For the recipe, you're going to need a little help from Google Translate (unless you speak Arabic).

A Buddha bowl inspired by Jaj Mahshi Bil Freekeh (Freekeh Stuffed Chicken), this dish will keep you full and happy, much like the Buddha belly that inspired the name. If you’re planning to invite guests, consider a “bowl bar” where friends and family can create bowls with their favorite fixings.

This homemade shawarma's texture replicates those crispy bits that get sheared off the surface of that giant rotating cone. It may not be exactly the same as traditional shawarma, but it's pretty close and absolutely delicious.

Qataayif are the pancakes of the Arab world and the post popular Ramadan dessert. This decadent treat is stuffed with anything from cheese, to nuts, to Nutella, and then baked or fried, and drenched in a homemade syrup.
